The venerable and reticent Hollywood film queen Evelyn Hugo is at last prepared to share the whole truth about her glitzy and controversial past. No one is more shocked than Monique Grant, the obscure magazine reporter, when she selects her for the position. How come she? Now, why?
Monique's life isn't quite perfect. Her career life is stagnating, and her spouse has left her. Whatever the reason for Evelyn's choice of her to write her biography, Monique is eager to seize this chance to launch her career.
Monique is called to Evelyn's opulent flat and watches in awe as the actress shares her life tale. Evelyn tells the story of her journey to Los Angeles in the 1950s, her choice to quit the entertainment industry in the ~80s, and, of course, the seven spouses she had along the way. She explores themes of fierce ambition, surprising companionship, and a great forbidden love. As Evelyn's narrative draws to a close, Monique starts to feel a deep and genuine connection to the iconic figure. However, it soon becomes evident that Evelyn's life has terrible and irrevocable connections with Monique's own.
